How do I work that one out? Simple. If you can check "child A" because their religion doesn't care what you do with their hair, but can't with "child B" because he has a religious problem with strangers/infidel combing through their matted tresses with a fine-tooth comb, then both child A and child B have reason to cry discrimination. A because you're subjecting him to the ordeal and not doing the same with B, and B because A is getting healthcare that B is not.

It'll get worse before it gets better... If we survive beyond Wednesday, that is.

Not sure how you come to the conclusion that because we live in a multi cultural society we therefore expect more head lice. ( not sure if you implied that or just how I read it )

These things are wingless, can’t fly, swim or jump. Transfer from one person to another is through direct “hair to hair” contact as I understand things. Going from my understanding it would seem that anyone who is sensitive to exposing their hair in public is less likely to pass on or catch head lice.
